On Thursday night, November 6, in Los Angeles, Maude Apatow was recognized at the Women in Film 2025 WIF Honors with the Max Mara Face of the Future Award. Boasting an impressive list of past recipients—including Zoë Saldana, Katie Holmes, Yara Shahidi, and Lili Reinhart—the award, now celebrating its 20th year, recognizes a young actor at a turning point in her career.

Apatow, 27, first appeared on-screen in her dad, Judd Apatow’s, 2007 film Knocked Up and has since carved out a space for herself in film and television with roles in Euphoria , The King of Staten Island, and One of Them Days. Now, she’s stepping behind the camera with her directorial debut, Poetic License , a coming-of-age film that earned strong reviews at the Toronto International Film Festival in September.
